IN MEMORIAM.

Blackburn.—ln sad and loving memory of George Henry Blackburn, who died September 11, 1905.

Oh, for the touch of a vanished hand, Or tho sound of a voice that is still. The midnight stars are beaming upon a silent grave, JXThere sleeping without dreaming, is one we could not save ; In dreams I see your loving face and kiss your dear sweet brow, And whisper, as a loved you then I love your memory now. We'll never forget him, we loved him too dearly For his memory to fade from our lives like a dream; The lips may not speak though the heart mourns sincerely, # Yet the thoughts often rise where they seldom are seen. Inserted by those who loved him.
